Political Quotes

“We know you cannot go anywhere in this country, from Alaska to Florida-- and that is about as far as we can get, from Alaska to Florida--and not hear of the pain and the fear. It is not just pain, it is downright fear on the part of a small businessperson who does not know when their next paycheck will come. Every Monday morning they go to their small business with three or four employees, they turn the lights on, they crank up the computer, and they look in the eyes of people with whom they have worked shoulder to shoulder and they are thinking, Can I pay them this week? Is anybody not hearing this? I am hearing it. The Senator from Alaska is hearing it. The Senators in Florida are hearing it.”
